How can cure myself of non-committal behavior?

Question

I am not exclusively talking about committing to one women (although that is one part of the problem). I can not commit to anything for a long period of time. I'm easily distracted and bored by every activity I undertake, be it my job, hobby, or my relationships. I haven't read a book from starting to end in years. I have started many hobbies only to drop them after a fee months. I work out hard for many months and then slip into a long lay off. My relationships never go beyond a few months. How can I resolve this issue? I've lost a lot of friends due to this behavior. As days go by I find myself withdrawn. I don't necessarily wanrt to live this way. What I can do to remedy this ?

Answer 1

i do the same stuff, and have for 50 years. i thought it was interesting when i once held the same job for over 15 years, and equally interesting that i was actually consistent when it came to raising my children.

everything else? not really.

i have bipolar disorder, and i know this may be part of the issue.

if these issues are affecting your life on a daily basis, maybe consider a therapist to find direction. take care.

Answer 2

May want to seek professional guidance for this one. Sounds like you are very unfulfilled and always looking for something better/different. I don't think there is any real "remedy", but figuring out why you do these things may help.
